- W2502134605 abstract "The siege of Azov in 1641 is a remarkable event in military history that has been neglected by historians in the west and studied primarily through the prism of literary myth in Russia. As the history of the siege became so closely intertwined with literary invention, this chapter is a preliminary attempt to untangle military realities from literary myths. It evaluates the conflicting, fragmentary accounts of the siege that are available in Russian diplomatic records. In an enthusiastic attempt to narrate how a small Cossack force prevailed over the great, awesome, undefeatable forces of the Turkish sultan, an unknown clerk working in Moscow in the mid-seventeenth century displaced key documents and penned a literary text that replaced key incidents with rhetorical bravado and Russian bluster. Consequently, it took years of following his trails and analyzing his tales to properly distinguish military realities from literary myths. Keywords:Azov; Cossack force; literary myth; military realities; Ottoman siege" @default.
